@@edwardspencer9397 Sure...I meant atleast in India this happens...parents don't allow you to drink chai when you are very young. They prefer us to have milk. So I said that. Have a great day.
Opium wars were one of the most pivotal incident in modern Indian history, where the doors to chinese expansionism of Brits started. Basically its starts with control of Canton area where the foreign ships were previously not allowed to dock or to sell opium to chinese. Opium wars were devastating and finally got British the control of opium trade , by obvious unequal treaty that British were accustomed to make.
Opium wars were also the catalyst for liberation and financial growth of parsi and iranian communities in India. It were the farsis and iranis who first delved with the British to trade with China and in turn became very rich as well got in good books of british, Hence. the ancestors of shapoorji, tata, wadias were all opium traders for british with China in the mid 18th century. Before the opium wars, the parsis and iranis were small minority communities who were poor traders.
Actually ancient Indian yogis knew about tea plant very well. They knew it is addictive and they used it for medical purpose. It was used to be given as a offering to the guests.
uff, finally who knows the actual facts. these british manipulate all facts. wild native tea was growing in assam n was famous locally too for its benefits. british farmed chinese varieties in darjeeling n nilgiri. ayurveda know many plants n its benefits n know about tea too but spiritually any intoxicant even caffeine is not allowed so it didnt spread much. only certain yogis,sects consumed tea. compounds of black tea,coffee irritates stomach n intestines n thats why adding milk benefits. though china drinks without adding milk, milk tea or chai originated in india n was spread in tibet with yalk milk, spread is middle east,turkey etc as milk chai only. video says dont know how milk was added but dutch added it says , wtf that fact
Even before china tea was brought to India, India has its own varieties of tea plants and has been mostly using it for medicinal purposes. In Ayurveda, tea has been called by many different names in Sanskrit based on their medicinal benefits and physical properties. For example "giribheet" (grown on mountain soil), "komalras" (mild nectar), "shyamparni" (dark green leaves), "smleshmari" (mucus killer), "atandri" (insomniac). Britishers came popularised it as a beverage (good for us)! Both in India and China tea is called "chai" or "cha". I think the term "Tea" came from mispronouncing its scientific name "Thea". Some how the 'h' got dropped. :)
I heard a lot of the movie n it’s phenomenal film n I want to see the movie hw to see if it’s with subtitles it will be v good although I ve seen Malayalam movies ur latest super hero name is just out of mind small height with beards he was a flop n all suggested him to leave but his father told him his potential n now he is a big hit also manmoorty stories r v interesting ! 👍🇮🇳🕉🙏
I like it when you say I don't know so that you don't want to assume the events or happenings which can cause misinformation in your viewers. That's needed in this world.
My beloved State- Assam is the world's largest tea-growing region by production and apparently Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth ii met Meghan Markle over blend of Assam and Darjeeling 🍵 ❤️
Half of world says it as some variation of Tea(like tee) while other half says it as some variation of cha/chai. But both the names originate from China. Quite astounding!!!
@@sayansingha6370 Chinese invented Tea.. It is believed that Tea was brought to India by silk caravans that travelled from China.. But from South to East india and some parts of Asian and Europe name Use Tea or their forms of name like I mentioned before!
@@giniyan2662 yeah that's what I am saying. China exported tea through 2 routes- land and sea. Export through land land spread the name chai while export through sea spread the name tea. North India received it through land, so that's why they call chai, whereas South India received it by sea and hence it is called thenir in Tamil
Well! Normal households in Kerala starts with a cup of black coffee at early morning.. and later followed by milk tea for breakfast... And at evening, either black tea or milk tea.. ☕
Yep. The last bit. They also used to sell the tea to America. And they controlled that trade. The Boston tea party was also to offset the trade. And by switching to coffee you really did offset it by a large amount
This documentary is incomplete without Raja NandaKumar’s trial - a sham trial anyway. It became a public show with tea offering on the ground outside the courthouse.
Chai has become a more like a member in every household in India m in varieties but I love Darjeeling tea n without it my day will not start it’s like a boost to ur soul ! Even while traveling I carry with me esp western cout they take so light tea no taste feel drinking hot water !!!!😛😄👍🇮🇳🕉🙏
Not many know of New Amsterdam that came before New York. When the Dutch gave up New Amsterdam to the British in return of Suriname I think, the name changed from New Amsterdam to New York after the Duke of York. Many places in NYC such as Broadway, Harlem, Wall Street, Broadway, Bronx, etc. have come from Dutch words or places in the Netherlands. Haarlem is a city that is 775 years old here in the Netherlands. Watching from The Netherlands btw ;)
Another variety of Tea is Herbal Tea or काढ़ा KADHA comprising of Ziziphus mauritiana, also known as Indian jujube/ BER, along with cloves , cardamon , bark of a tree (Dal Chini ) and some herbs cooked in a similar fashion like Tea , makes a concoction good for Cold, Cough , running nose [ Hamdard's Gurukul Kangari Chai ]
We need to talk about Malayalam movie Jallikatu being sent for the oscars and finally after a long time a sensible choice was sent and the judges didn’t dare sent another moronic, bakwas, forgettable movie like Gully Boy which was an 8mile rip off. Also forgetting that it was picked by the Bollywood mafia nepo kid Zoya Akhtar who paid money to the judges to get it sent to the oscars...So happy a sensible visual treat like Jallikatu is sent.
boston tea party was against import of tea from India via British company where Americans were demanding that they won't pay taxes because they don't have voting rights . so they were demanding equality and yes tea was huge and they thought Americans will never refuse the tea so they decreased the taxes and increased the price of tea exports to almost triple however, American refused it . may be this could be reason Americans shifted towards coffee as a sign of patriotic feeling as well as to disobey the britishers.
When I visited India in 2019 I was horrified by the degradation of street Chai everywhere I went in my state. The cost is increased which is ok and understandable. But they literally served in cups of size of a bottle cap and it was just sugar syrup. After a while I started taking Chai made at home in flask everywhere to the amusement of all relatives.
The Turks lost the Battle of Vienna in 1683. But they left behind coffee that was adopted by the Europeans. Strong coffee was diluted by adding milk and sugar. Vienna shortly opened their first Coffee House after the war.
Main difference for me is the coffee gives you enough caffeine when you don't have time in the day for breaks, vs tea with less caffeine that you drink multiple times a day little bit at a time, or if you only need a little bit of caffeine closer to the night without drinking coffee and staying up later.
For information two guys namely Kanan and Devan two labour s from s India brought the tea cultivation in s India the British named the company as kannan and Devan it was huge company later in British era
You guys should also watch and review the Opium War video as the opium was grown in India and its trade was very very lucrative and gave wealth to many India merchants who today are some of the richest people/families in India.
Yes. American switch to coffee was because British East India company had monopoly on tea and they made a lot of money on it. Ofcourse after Boston Tea Party, there was much less tea there in America and coffee was the obvious choice of masses.
Hello stupid reactions... I am from Darjeeling and I am really happy that you came to know about my place as well. I have request Rick for "Ronnie & Barty"'s Zansakar reaction. Please react to it. You will love it... Lots of love from Darjeeling
In first opium war china ceded hongkong to britain and in 1898 britain got another 99 years of rule, then in 1997 hongkong was handed back to mainland China
Today, the tea plantation workers are highly exploited. They are overworked and underpaid. In some situations, there are also bonded labour like conditions. During British rule, the situation was worse, as was the case with multiple industries and sectors.
Tea comes from the Tea plant (Camellia Sinensis). That is the only source for tea, or chai. Try calling Chamomile coffee. That does not make sense, you say? Neither does Chamomile Tea. Just as Coffee needs to come from the Coffea species of plants, tea needs to come from the Camellia Sinensis species pf plants. Chamomile comes from plants of the family Asteraceae, and adding hot water to it does not make coffee or tea. It is an herbal infusion.
Everything from Political debates to fixing marriages happens over a cup of Chai.
